In the last #SpeakItDontEatIt post, I challenged every one of you badass babes as well as myself to take our movement and exercise routines out-freaking-side. I’ve taken my cardio days out of the gym and to the trail…and sometimes the city sidewalk…and sometimes right through strangers’ lawns in the suburbs. Here’s the revelation my 1:1 […]

Last week, I drove 520 miles to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee to plant myself directly in the path of the total solar eclipse. Four-mile trail walks, chilled swimming holes, and a wraparound cabin porch stirred my soul. Crisp river currents pulled at my ankles and smooth gravel crunched under my shoes. Swarms of butterflies sparkled their […]

But, so hear you me, it was never, ever due to a lack of motivation, focus, or willpower. It was because the engine of the Weight Loss Industry Machine is fueled by consuming women’s entire lives. Every program I committed to burned through my motivation, focus, and willpower in a matter of weeks. And once […]

Fact: I am lazy as Hell. – I got a bulldog specifically because I wanted the laziest breed that required the least amount of exercise. – The only sport I ever played was 3rd grade soccer, and every home video is of me picking dandelions on the field. – There’s currently a three bags […]

There is a full body mirror propped against the wall in my bedroom. Every morning, after I stumble out of bed, I walk past that mirror and do a full body check. Okay, here’s the truth: I’m really just checking my stomach. Okay, not my “stomach,” – my B-E-L-L-Y. The soft, rounded, divine feminine […]

Here is what I know. My deepest truth serving as the baseboards in my house of dreams: Connection is the cure. Every time, without exception, connection to other souls is the cure to what ails you. The opposite of sad is not happy, it’s connected. The opposite of afraid? Lost? Losing? Everytime, connection. Often […]

We all want to be surrounded by body positivity, but we don’t want to volunteer to be the bopo inspo. I’m totally calling myself out here. Like children to a magic show, we are enamoured with women who are real, raw, and bold. We crave the company of women who dance like no one’s […]

Taking care of your body shouldn’t be as boring and obnoxious as making an out-of-the-way-trip to the post office. Your body is not another task on the Good Girl’s To-Do List. When your workouts become self-discipline instead of self-care, it’s time to press the reset button. Find something that draws you in like […]

I was working with one of my dear clients last night (how do I get to work with such awesome women?!), and it was a tough session. She came to me with her head down and her tail between her legs – she’d had an all-out binge for the first time in weeks. Her voice […]

#SpeakItDontEatIt is a blog series grown out of one simple but profound concept: When you speak your truth, you don’t eat it (and then hide the wrappers). Every time I hit publish, I send out into the depths of the internet a post that is equal parts science and soul, and 100% truth. This is […]
